Chapter 88 Father and Son Part 1
Ding Xiao'e was a little worried when she said this.
Because the son was kicked out of this house by his father!
The last time my son came back, he had a conflict with his father.
The son has not come back for more than a month. In Ding Xiao'e's opinion, this is probably the knot in his son's heart.
After all, the son has grown up and was kicked out of the house by his biological father, and it was made known to the whole city. After all, he can't save face.
Unexpectedly, Li Chenan smiled slightly after hearing this: "That's good. It just so happens that I also have something I want to discuss with him."
"……That's good!"
Ding Xiao'e held Li Chenan's hand, patted it gently, and said sincerely: "He is your father after all... He used to be full of expectations for you. Mom still said the same thing. Don't blame him. He doesn't have the same heart."
It’s not bad, I just want my son to become a successful person.”
"The third bedroom of our Li family...hey,"
Ding Xiao'e lowered her head, let out a long sigh, and looked up at Li Chen'an, "After all, you are the eldest son of the third family. Your father has always hoped that you can support the third family of the Li family."
"Even if you can't produce a third-ranked scholar, it would be good to produce a Jinshi. Of course, my mother also hoped for this."
"It's just that now it seems that it is no longer important."
"Your father is actually very happy these days, because he has mentioned you many times in the east courtyard, saying that Mr. Hua admires you very much, and also said that your song "Die Lian Hua" is really a great song.
.”
"Mom can actually see the regret in his heart, but after all... after all, he can't afford to be embarrassed to apologize to you."
"What mother means is that you have a good talk with your father. Mother hopes that you can return to the Li Mansion. Of course, if you still can't let go, then don't get angry with him, and neither will your father.
easy!"
Li Chenan listened carefully and nodded:
"Well, don't worry, Mom, I know all this. Speaking of which... I would also like to thank him. If he hadn't kicked me out, maybe I would still be the fool that others call me."
This is what Li Chenan is saying from his heart.
If the original owner is not dead, how can he come?
But if the original owner had not died, what would he be doing now in the society in his previous life?
Mostly in some club.
Most of them are in a state of ecstasy.
Different lives, different experiences. Now that I am gradually getting used to this place, I can’t say which one is better.
Ding Xiao'e breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her lips. She patted Li Chenan's hand again: "If you can think like this, it means that my son has really grown up, and mother... mother is relieved."
"Sit down by yourself first. Mom will go to the kitchen to prepare some food for you and your son to go with the wine."
"Mom, you take a rest and I'll cook!"
"What are you talking about? The gentleman is far away from the kitchen. Cooking is the business of our women... Or you can make a pot of tea yourself and Qiaoxi come and help mother light the fire. That would be faster."
"Okay!"
Li Qiaoxi happily agreed, and Li Chenan could only show a wry smile. He really wanted to cook two dishes by himself, even though he was not good at cooking in his previous life.
Unable to dissuade his mother, he gave up the idea and actually sat in the yard and made a pot of tea by himself.
The tea is not a good tea.
At least it's much worse than the Yuqian Longjing I drank on Taohua Island today.
After searching through my memory carefully, I found that the Guangling Li family was really in decline.
The Li Mansion occupies a large area, with four courtyards in the east, west, north, and south, as well as several gardens in the front and back yards. It was a family property created by the ancestors of the Li family three generations ago.
But later, both the first and second houses of the Li family became prosperous, and then they moved out of Guangling City and settled down in Kyoto.
So that left the third room of the Li family, which is still in Guangling City.
A wife, a concubine, two sons, a daughter, and five servants raised in the west courtyard - my sister said that those five servants have now left, but the woman in the west courtyard still bought two more maids.
He knows how to enjoy things, but he is not as frugal as his mother.
The family's expenses are all supported by Li Wenhan's monthly salary.
The little family fortune I once saved has now been spent long ago.
Also, Li Chendong, the son of the concubine in Xiyuan, was studying and spending money, and the family was living in a tight situation.
Li Chenan didn't have much sympathy for this. He just wanted his mother and sister to live a better life. He needed to discuss some things with Li Wenhan, otherwise his mother would definitely not move away from here.
Just when Li Chenan was thinking about these things, Li Wenhan walked in from behind the moon door, carrying a roast chicken in his left hand and a small jar in his right hand, which was probably wine.
He must have been very happy when he stepped into the Moon Gate, because he shouted happily: "Xiao'e, kill this roast chicken..."
The word "wine" cannot be exported.
He saw Li Chenan sitting under the lantern in the yard!
He was startled and stopped in the corridor.
The father and son looked at each other for a moment, then he withdrew his gaze and walked silently into the yard. After thinking about it, he walked towards the kitchen.
At that moment, in Li Chenan's eyes, he saw his father's back, which was originally straight, suddenly became rickety.
It was at this glance that he saw the guilt in his father's heart.
In fact, this father is only thirty-six years old now.
This should have been the time when he was in his prime, but the energy in him seemed to have long since disappeared.
He was promoted from a teacher to a dean at Takeshita Academy, but his temperament did not improve as a result. On the contrary, he became more depressed than the image in his childhood memories.
I still remember that when my predecessor was three years old, he enthusiastically enlightened his eldest son, and then personally taught his eldest son, vowing to educate the eldest son of the third wife of the Li family into a man.
Even if you can't win the first prize, you must at least pass the Jinshi exam.
However, my predecessor, from the age of three to eleven, really couldn’t even memorize the Three-Character Sutra!
This is the biggest blow to Li Wenhan!
As for the subsequent martial arts training and business, they were actually compromises made by Li Wenhan out of despair.
In the end, because of the debts owed by his predecessor for gambling... Perhaps out of the reputation of being a scholar, or perhaps because of the reputation of the Li family's scholarly family, he finally used the remaining money in the family to help his predecessor repay those debts.
Gambling debts owed.
Finally, he kicked his predecessor out of the house.
Is this his fault?
no!
Ask yourself, if your son is so miserable, I'm afraid I will be very angry.
His fault was that he alienated his first wife because of this, but it seems that situation has changed now.
Just when Li Chenan was thinking about these things, Li Wenhan came over from the kitchen.
Li Chenan raised his eyes and looked at him.
He was wearing green clothes, his body was a little thin, his face was quite thin, and even the beard about a foot long on his chin seemed like autumn weeds.
The eyes on that thin face looked at the road in front of him.
He just walked to this pavilion.
Stand still with both feet.
Slowly raise your head.
The eyes of father and son met again.
There was no sharp light in his sight.
He was like a child who had done something wrong, his eyes were full of anxiety, which made Li Chenan's heart suddenly hurt.
Li Chenan stood up.
Bow and bow.
He said those two words very naturally:
"Father!"
Chapter completed!
